When Everything Is Gone

When flowers don't bloom
And skies don't cry
Will you remember
The scent of the rain

When the rivers stop flowing
And the birds stop singing
Will you remember
The sounds that they bring

When day and night
Never come again
When the sun never rises
And the sun never sets
Will you remember
The beauty it brought

When the mountains are silent
And the animals are gone
Will you remember
Their purpose on earth

When people stop speaking
And nobody cares
 Will you remember
Their stories untold

When the end is near
And everything is gone
 You remember
All that was done for you?
